Developed decades ago by Dr. George Papanicolaou, the Pap smear is considered one of but a handful of diagnostic tests that can "detect the presence of a premalignant lesion allowing for the prevention of cancer" (Anonymous, 2002). By comparison, the preventative nature of Pap smear results rivals that of most all other tests, in that existing technology finds cancer once it has already had time to progress, making it extremely difficult in many cases to prevent cancer-related death.
